A Green Guide to Sustainable Skivvies!

Let’s face it- Valentine’s Day isn’t really about the romance anymore- it’s about the chocolate, the Hallmark cards, and of course, the sexy lingerie. But sexy and sustainable aren’t mutually exclusive- in fact the most sexy skivvies are the ones that are so organic and natural they feel like a second skin. Here are a few tips to green your boudoir attire…

MYA RECYCLED PINE UNDERTHINGS
Can you believe these sexy undergarments are made from recycled white pine-tree pruning? As soft as silk with the feel of cashmere, these sustainable skivvies, which are made in a small village in France, will take you ‘back to nature’ in no time.

If you actually took the time to read the article above you would see that NONE of the above products are made in third world countries and shipped overseas. American Apparel is made in the U.S., MYA is made in France, Enamore is made in the UK. The only possibly suspect brand above might be Victoria Secret, and that line isn’t even out yet. Nice use of the made-up word ‘finestest’ though!

Very sexy, nice concept. However, how is this considered “green deign” or “sustainable” when many of the brands listed above are made in third-world countries where there are no regulations and then the products are shipped (via) cargo ship across the pacific ocean, burning thousands upon thousands of fossil fuel in the process. Greenwashing at it finestest. Mass consumption will never be considered sustainable!

Love the stuff, I need to forward onto my husband so he can give me some. I own a surf company and we make all of our knits from Organic Cotton. Check it out. Love AuH20Designs.com … just checked it out. Thanks.
